I Burned Out... Then Found Out I Was Autistic

For most of my life, I thought I was failing at being a person. I didn't understand why everyday life felt so hard, why I was always exhausted, or why I kept pushing myself until there was nothing left. This is the story of the autistic burnout that changed everything, the late diagnosis that helped me understand myself, and the beginning of our family's decision to build a life that actually fits. This is the first chapter of With The Shams – our documentary-style family channel about autism, healing, marriage, slow living, and our journey toward Vietnam. If you've ever felt exhausted, misunderstood, or like the life you were living wasn't made for you, I hope this story helps you feel less alone. Welcome to the Phamily. We're glad you're here. ❤️ ➡️ Continue the story here:    • The Life I Worked So Hard to Build Was Mak...   Subscribe to follow our journey: #autisticburnout #latediagnosedautistic #WithThePhams
